motivation

Last week for those who came to the session on Personality Types, we explored both our own type preferences and touched on identifying some of our values.

This week we are going to take the theme of Values and link them to MOTIVATION

We will be asking questions like

“Why do I get so excited about some things and not others?”

“How can I get more motivated to do the things I should do, but do not really want to?”

“How can I increase the motivation I have got, so I can achieve more “

“Where the heck did my Mojo go?”

As usual we will use discussion, learning and exercises to deepen our understanding of ourselves, but this week I will be introducing some NLP techniques, which will be optional.

By the end of the workshop you will understand and recognise how your values affect your passions and, and be able to increase your motivation not only to do the things you want to do with more energy, but also the tasks that you have to do.

See you there, Caroline

Personal Development Circle North East

The Personal Development Cafe is both for those people new to personal development and for those already exploring coaching and neuro linguistic programing (nlp). The café sessions are designed to be informative, stimulating and compliment other Personal Development Circle North East’ workshops.

“If I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.” Gandhi

As a member of the Personal Development Cafe part you will:

– Discover the benefits of using personal development techniques
– Learn tools for confidence, motivation & the power of your mind
– Gain an understanding of the science and behind personal development
– Feel motivated and supported by the group
– Progress to become the person you want to become

Café sessions are monthly and run for 2 hours. In a relaxed and informal setting the sessions will start with a coffee followed by “some food for thought” – an informative and stimulating talk. Then it’s time for “café chatter” to open up discussion. We finish with some “clearing up” and self-reflection which is for your eyes only.

You are welcome to “drop in” on individual café sessions, but you may find benefit from regular attendance.

No matter what your goals and dreams may be or at what level you are to achieving them. With consistent motivation, a deeper understanding of the power of your mind, good clear teaching, and a friendly group of people behind you, you will gain a deeper understanding and belief in yourself from which change will naturally develop.

March 8th Start thinking right

Start right thinking

There’s a battle going on in our minds, a daily conversation with ourselves which if it’s going well, can make our day and if it not well “I might as well not even bother !!!!” (does this sound familiar?)

The true fact is that our bodies and behaviours are affected by the way we think. We think in patterns that develop habits, our brain remembers these habits and like a well-worn path, they are stored in the neurology of the brain.

More often than not we talk down to ourselves, talk ourselves out of things and limit our opportunities before that have even entered the room. When was the last time you told yourself how amazing you are?

The good news is that our brain can learn a new path, and the more often we choose a better path the more worn it becomes until it becomes a new path of better thinking.

So in this session we are going to explore a little bit about how the brain works, the physical effects of both positive and negative self-talk and write ourselves some affirmations to take home, so we can start the day on the right path.

On this workshop you will learn how to work towards your goals and outcomes by changing your behaviour, your sensory perspective, values and skills.

We will focus on Robert Dilts‘ Neurological Levels, where it stands in NLP, and how best to use it to work towards goals and outcomes – adynamic interactive workshop with underlying theory and practical activities to take home!

Over the next few sessions we will be exploring various techniques to help you create positive mind states and behaviours to help you achieve what you want from life.

Some of the many techniques we will use include how to:

Creating “Well-Formed” Outcomes that develop behaviourial shifts

Reframe negative thought patterns into positive behaviours

Overcome limiting beliefs

Deal with Inner Conflict

Creating Compelling & Alternative Futures

Move quickly from present state to a desired state

Operate from a solutions focused mindset

Create a state of “As If” you already had all the resources you need.

You don’t need to know anything about at all about NLP or personal development, but you will gain a lot from this session even if you are already familiar with this approach – a friendly and fun session open to experienced NLP people and beginners alike!

Again, the meeting is open to ANYONE looking for new tools to help them achieve their personal goals or is simply interested in finding new ways to help make positive change.

Tea and Coffee provided.

Each month we cover a different coaching topic covering personal development with practical tools to facilitate positive change in ourselves. In the past we’ve explored techniques to improve self-esteem, dealing with fears & phobias, stress/anxiety, coaching, goal-setting, and many more.

Well we passed Blue Monday and how many of us are still on track with our goals? Setting goals is the easy bit. I challenged members of my Coaching Club to set some great inspiring goals for the first quarter of 2014 and they did a great job. Well they delivered and came up with some cracking goals, I was well impressed.

This week we are looking a Milestones and Resources, looking at commitment to reach our goals and connecting with the great feelings we will have when we achieve success.

The Coaching Club is on each week in January and February (Saturday afternoons) and you get purchase your tickets on Eventbrite.

The secret to success often rests with setting great goals … but why should we set goals?

We spend so much of time thinking about what is happening in our life – good and bad – and often wanting things to be changed but not sure what we want instead. Whatever aspect of our lives it is (family / friendships / career / wellbeing / money etc) there is something that we would want to change.

So how does change start? Well a good place is in setting goals!

There are many benefits of goal setting.

Taking Control

Goals are like having an in-built Sat Nav – your goals will take to in a direction you have chosen and for which you want to go. Setting goals is about articulating your vision (whether in words, pictures, symbols or a combination of). Your vision will take you on a path to reality and when you have achieved the goal, you improve your life and become a better version of yourself – your confidence and self esteem will increase as you appreciate and acknowledge your achievements.

Focusing on the important things

When you set goals you are sorting out your priorities – deciding what is most important to you and what can wait. By focusing your time and efforts on what you want to achieve you are more likely to achieve your goals.

You will make reasoned decisions

Once your Goals have been identified when opportunties come along you are more likely to make the right decisions in line with your goals and medium / long term plans.

You are more likely to achieve you goal sooner

If you remain focused on your goals and keep them in mind. You will have a focused approach to life and are more likely to concentrate your time, finances and energy with less likelihood in being distracted.

Be confident, be enthusiastic

When you set goals they need to be specific so you can measure your progress. As you near your goal and monitor your profess this will improve your confidence, keep you motivated and enthusiastic about achieving the final stage which marks your success.

Making progress

Each time you achieved one goal, you will want to set more goals in the knowledge you can get there. Subsequent goals are often harder to achieve and require more effort. As you have achieved some goals there is no reason why you cannot go on to bigger and better things with higher goals.

You are closer to success

Every step you take towards your goals is a step nearer to success.

Remember to reward your efforts along the way.

How to set goals

This is easy. Setting goals that motivate and inspire you to achieve is a tad harder. Come along to our Coaching Cafe Goals workshop – set some compelling goals and start on your journey to success.

In the Coaching Club workshop I will take you through the art of setting goals, identify which goals are key to your personal success right now.

Procrastination can destroy your dreams, before you know it time has passed you by and all of those hopes, dreams and goals have fallen by the wayside. When that happens it is easy to regret what has happened, to blame yourself and others for the lack of progress or achievement.

The thing with procrastination is that it grabs you tightly with both hands and holds on without you even realising it. It holds you back and before you know it days, weeks and months pass you by as have many opportunities that came your way and it is too late to follow up.

How much has procrastination cost your or your business? I am not just talking about money. I am talking about opportunites that you have not taken up, relationships that have fallen by the wayside, people who you know have moved on to more attentive friends or partners.

It will happen again and again until you learn how to deal with procrastination. You need to understand how it takes a grip and how you cann cast it aside, ready to change, motivated and excited about new opportunities.

What will you no longer accept in your life?Are you ready to change?Are you committed to change?

What will you do? You can stay where you are right now or learn how to motivate and excel yourself for a bigger brighter future.
